What we're noticing right now, what the indicators show, is that the use of English as a language of work is really on the rise. The proportion of anglophones is much higher, and the use of French as the language of work is declining. I think that's why the Use of French in Federally Regulated Private Businesses Act was created.
In an article that appeared in Le Droit, you said that, as the new Commissioner of Official Languages, you would continue to defend francophones outside Quebec and anglophones in Quebec equally. That goes back to the principle of symmetry that was in the old act. We're talking about equivalency between anglophones in Quebec and francophones outside Quebec.
Do you mean that anglophones in Quebec need to be supported on an equal basis with francophone minorities outside Quebec?
